Good location. But hallway carpet stained and dirty
A man's underpants was under the sink
No place to hang clothes. No chair in room. Generally under equipped. Low price was too high for the way the room was
Best I can say is that the A/C worked and the water was hot

Close to a lot of restaurants and shops. It is on a main road so if your a light sleeper be prepared for a lot of semis and road noise. It’s not fancy but it’s a place to sleep if traveling.

Hotel motel
It's a motor lodge. You can't expect 5* quality at a hotel motel. It was average. I have seen worse.

The room I was given was clearly not cleaned. The bedding had cigarette holes in them, along with dirt in the bed. The staff was able to provide clean bedding, but the pillows still had yellow spots.
The floors were filthy with dust and dirt. When I asked if they could vacuum, the staff member said “no vacuum.” I think that meant they didn’t have one. The bathtub had dead roaches. The refrigerator was filled with dead roaches. That is when I decided to book another hotel at 11 PM.
I went to the office to try to get a refund, to which they said they can’t but they tried to offer me another room, which I declined because it seemed every room had similar conditions. I was very disappointed with the cleanliness and customer service.

Dirty dump
This place is appalling. Burns holes and stains on the sheets the floor had water stains and the room smells of mildew. House keeping is non existent and when they are around they're rude. But WORST of all there is an older man with a facial deformity at the front desk that is a pervert and creep. He asked my fiance "how much" insinuating she's an escort. LADIES BE AWARE! He will try to get as close as possible while talking to you and tries flashing cash to interest. STAY AWAY!! MUCH BETTER OPTIONS AT THIS PRICE POINT

The wifi did not work, and i had to get my key fixed at least once a day. They have 2 papers worth of rules but dont actually care as the other guest had almost a dozen children running around, screaming and knocking on everyone's doors. I found pubix hairs on my toilet seat and used soap under the sink. My sheets smelled funny, and you cam see daylight thru the edges of the doors. The guest use locks werent even installed right so you dont really feel safe.

The check in was fine. There were cigarette burns on the bedding and bed frame. There was no where to hang up clothing. The filter on the air conditioner/heating unit was dirty. The outside doors need to be cleaned.
